One of the reasons for not using a 7200 drive for parity is when you need more space you buy a new drive which will usually be bigger than you current parity drive, which means you either add the 7200 drive as a data drive or sell it.
If you sell it you probably wont be upgrading space by much, and if you add it to the array you are just adding unneeded heat etc.
I find a cache drive helpful for applications such as sickbeard / sabnzbd and also as kind of a staging area, if something comes down and if in the wrong place for whatever reason I have until the mover script executes to change it before it gets written to the array.

* Just upgraded the top fan to a 140mm SilenX EFX. Wanted something with no LED and they yellow looks cool. It's the only fan that is on.

It looks like the MOBO used in this build is no longer available from Amazon or NewEgg. Is there anything about the ASRock 880GM-LE "FX" model that makes it any less desirable for unraid?
The onboard LAN, audio, video, north & south bridges are all identical to the ASRock 880GM-LE motherboard. Both also have 6 SATA ports. Here is a link for this mobo for $60 which looks comparable to the non FX model (except this one includes only 1 SATA cord rather than 2... oh well). |
